Time to apply the Duck Test to Barack Hussein Obama.


When are we ever going to learn anything that our grownups taught us? You know, like the wisdom that a stitch in time saves nine. Next time you lose a button you might remember that. How about that insightful piece of wisdom for judging people we once heard about, called the Duck Test. It tells you how to determine the true nature of someone who seems to be masked in the camouflage of an Aesopian language. The Duck Test is a form of inductive reasoning. As Wikipedia explains it, "The test implies that a person can identify an unknown subject by observing that subject's habitual characteristics. It is sometimes used to counter abstruse arguments that something is not what it appears to be.

So: If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it must be a duck. Really.

Yes, really. Just because it's funny doesn't stop it from being true. Now it really gets interesting when this form of logic is applied to politics in general and politicians in particular. Take for instance the catchy code words that are splashed across our newspaper headlines these days. My favorite today is "Income Inequality". The Cincinnati Enquirer had a full-page story on this today but of course, like most liberal newspapers they didn't offer any Duck Test to identify the true origin of the idea. Their story was all about the disturbing fact that the rich have more money than the poor and that isn't fair and what we must do to rectify the injustice. Shades of income redistribution.
How about thinking for a moment about an older version of this same idea about "Income Inequality": “From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs”. The new version of Income Inequality is being marketed by Barack Hussein Obama who, as a young man, was mentored for 8 years by Frank Marshal Davis, a card carrying member of the Communist Party. The older version of that saying comes from the father of modern day communism, Karl Marx; and those who espouse it today are called Marxists. So if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it must be a duck. But don't bother reminding your newspaper editors about this. They probably already know that Obama is a Marxist but they don't want the public in on the secret.

SAUDI ARABIAN AIRLINES announces it will operate direct 17-hour flights to Los Angeles

All the better to get even more Saudi students and/or potential terrorists into the country more easily and faster than ever before.

03212013b

FOX News (h/t Subramanian K)  Saudi Arabian Airlines says it will begin operating direct flights to Los Angeles’s LAX airport by March 31. Saudia, the kingdom’s national carrier, already operates 14 flights a week to the Washington D.C. area and New York City.

The airline says flights to Los Angeles are aimed at accommodating the thousands of Saudi students studying in the United States on Saudi government scholarships.

Saudi senior spokesman, Abdullah bin Mushabab, said in a statement on Tuesday that the new flights will also help accommodate American Muslims in the west coast flying to Saudi Arabia for religious pilgrimage. He says the flights will run three times a week on Monday, Thursday and Saturday.

Dumping the post 9/11 policy of extra airport scrutiny for countries with known terrorist ties, the Obama Regime adds Saudi Arabia to the Easy-Entry Trusted Traveler Program

811_large
Daily Caller Saudi Arabia, the nation which produced 15 of the 19 hijackers in the 9/11 attacks, has become one of a handful of countries whose travelers can bypass normal passport controls at major US airports. Sources tell the Investigative Project on Terrorism that this will mark the first time that the Saudi government will have a direct role in vetting who is eligible for getting fast-tracked for entry into the United States.
Of the 19 individuals who hijacked American planes on September 11, 2001 — 15 were from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. “More recently, following the plot to blow up an international flight over Detroit on Christmas Day 2009, the Department saw fit to increase the scrutiny of passengers from countries like Saudi Arabia. This must be a factor in determining who to admit into the Global Entry Program.”

Before the terrorist attacks, Saudis had access to a program called Visa Express, that only required a visit to a travel agent in the Kingdom. That policy was discontinued a few months after the 2001 terror attacks.
trustedtravelers_20130320_104003

But now an updated version is back, only with a reassuring new name — the Global Entry trusted traveler program. Judicial Watch notes “just three years ago the U.S. government actually placed Saudi Arabia on a list of 14 countries whose travelers would face enhanced security.” GOP lawmakers voiced their concerns about “potential risks” associated with opening the Global Entry trusted traveler program — which “allows expedited clearance for pre-approved, low-risk travelers upon arrival in the United States” — to Saudi Arabia

The addition of Saudi Arabia to the trusted traveler program has received increased attention in recent days following a report from the Investigative Project on Terrorism. That report highlighted concerns about giving travelers from the repressive monarchy easier access than is given to citizens of many close U.S. allies. Only a few other countries are currently a part of the program — Canada, Mexico, South Korea and the Netherlands. Meanwhile American friends of long standing — including France, Great Britain and Germany — have not been included, and an agreement with Israel has yet to be implemented.

First-Class Islam: Eric Holder Puts Muslims Above Terror Suspicion

No more instruction about jihad, and Islam is to be considered a race. Robert Spencer was training FBI agents and military personnel, and he was dropped as well. We saw the consequences of this when the clueless politically correct FBI didn’t know how to handle the intel it received from Russia about Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon jihad bomber. That jihad could have been prevented. And more will come — all of which could have been prevented, if the U.S. had not gone down this disastrous road, courtesy of Barack Hussein Obama and Eric Holder.
The bottom line is, no one is safe, trim or no trim.

First-Class Islam: Eric Holder Puts Muslims Above Terror Suspicion,”
by Timothy Furnish, PJ Media, January 28, 2014

From 2008 to 2011, I was a guest lecturer at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (the primary DHS training facility, located in coastal Georgia) and at Joint Special Operations University (which brings foreign officers to learn of U.S. irregular warfare, located in Tampa). At both venues I was asked to lecture on the history of terrorism.

I did so in an even-handed and comprehensive manner, exploring the issue across place (Europe to East Asia), time (ancient Assyria to al-Qaeda), and ideology (religious: pagan, Jewish, Christian, Hindu, and Muslim; and political: right-wing, left-wing, anarchist, environmentalist, etc.). Only 14 of the 44 PowerPoint screens in my presentation dealt with Islamic terrorism, although several of those actually mitigated against the concept.

Nonetheless, in June 2009 I was told that I could no longer lecture at FLETC, because the edict had come down from the new Obama administration that “no trainer who uses the term ‘jihad’ shall henceforth be used.” (This was over two years before the Obama administration was openly hostile to realistic training about Islam.)

JSOU continued to utilize me until late 2011, when I was told by the course instructor that Muslim student officers had complained that “I talked too much about Islamic terrorism.”

I was actually surprised that I had not been yanked the year before, when references to Islam and jihad were stricken from Obama’s kinder, gentler National Security Strategy document. That same year, noted Islamic studies expert Eric Holder told the House Judiciary Committee that foiled Islamic suicide bombers in the U.S. were motivated by “Islam that is not consistent with” that religion’s “true teachings.”

Now, the Obama administration — led by Holder — has decided that Islam is a “race,” and therefore to examine or even to adduce a Muslim’s Islamic beliefs about jihad, beheading, violence against kuffar (“infidels”), or re-establishing a caliphate is tantamount to racism. This administration behavior is rationalized because “federal authorities have in particular singled out Muslims in counter terrorism investigations and Latinos for immigration investigations.”
It is difficult to express just how willfully ignorant of reality these statements and accompanying policies are.

Per the immigration example: as over 80% of “undocumented aliens” are from Mexico or another Latin American country, it would be foolish, indeed delusionary, to ignore that fact. The same logic applies to directing extra scrutiny towards individuals who hold a set of beliefs that may predispose them to violence against others not of that belief system.

And that is the primary point: Islam is a belief system. Not a race.

Muslims can be of any skin, Bosnian or Turkish, Nigerian, Saudi, Chinese. If American, Muslims can perhaps be of several nationalities. This is equally if not more true of Christians, who can be white Finns, black Ethiopians, brown Lebanese, or Koreans, to name but a few examples. It is not possible to look at someone (sans distinctive clothing) and ascertain whether he or she is Muslim or Christian — or secularist, for that matter.

Advocacy groups and willing dupes in the media and Democrat Party — like Senator Dick Durbin — have foolishly yet successfully conflated race and ideology in the case of only one religion, Islam. They have made examining the latter tantamount to discrimination against the former.  No one ever argues that singling out Christians for repression because they hold politically incorrect views about gay marriage or abortion amounts to “racism.”

Beyond the obvious fact that beliefs do not constitute a race, Holder et al. are massively wrong to deny the clear link between certain Islamic beliefs and terrorism.

Currently there are 57 groups on the U.S. State Department Foreign Terrorist Organization list; 38 of these are stridently Islamic in ideology and goals. Ten of these are secular/Leftist, six are nationalist, one is anarchist, and one each is Jewish and Christian. (The latter one — the Japanese, sarin gas-using Aum Shinrikyo — is at best only nominally Christian, and better described as generically apocalyptic.)

So: 67% of the world’s terrorist groups as recognized by the U.S. (more, actually, if State were honest and comprehensive; they should includee Syria’s Jabhat al-Nusra, the Islamic State of Iraq & Syria, etc.) are Muslim.

Since 9/11, 82% of U.S. Department of Justice terrorism convictions have been of Muslims, despite the fact that Muslims comprise less than 1% of the American population. (I accessed this data some time ago; it has since mysteriously disappeared from the DOJ website.)

The University of Maryland’s Global Terrorism Database tracks terrorism incidents from 1970 to today: search for “Islam” and you find almost 5,000 entries. Search for “Christianity” and you will find a grand total of 14.

The NSA could probably save a lot of money — as well as abide by the Constitution — if it simply acknowledged the following:
A person with neither a first nor a last Muslim name stood only a 1 in 500,000 chance of being a suspected terrorist. The likelihood for a person with a first or a last Muslim name was 1 in 30,000. For a person with first and last Muslim names, however, the likelihood jumped to 1 in 2,000 (Levitt & Dubner, Super Freakonomics, 2009, p. 93).
Clearly, for those with eyes to see and ears to hear, Islam is the world’s major ideological motivator of terrorism and violence. (I have neither the time, nor the patience, to yet again demonstrate the legitimate Islamic roots of violence. Ray Ibrahim’s brilliant article should be all the proof needed for those able to handle the truth.) Yet Eric Holder and his boss would have the federal authorities most responsible for protecting the public — led by the FBI — pretend that up is down, freedom is slavery, and Islam is peaceful except when “twisted” by a “handful of extremists.”

Instead of ardent Islamic beliefs being treated as a clear marker for potential terrorism, they are now a talisman protecting the holder not just from scrutiny, but suspicion.

Obama and Holder are transforming the U.S. into a dhimmi nation: one that cowers before Islamic law and demands that its non-Muslim citizens — especially its 240 million Christians — meekly accept their second-class status and never broach the glaringly obvious fact of Islamic violence, even if this means making all non-Muslims less safe. The question for those of us in the majority, then: just how long will we put up with such a dangerous policy?

From Israel: AMERICA’S DICTATOR-IN-CHIEF COMES “OUT OF THE CLOSET”: SOROS “INVADES” WH VIA (CLINTON’S) “TOP GUN” JOHN PODESTA! Commentary By Adina Kutnicki




AMERICA’S DICTATOR-IN-CHIEF COMES “OUT OF THE CLOSET”: SOROS “INVADES” WH VIA (CLINTON’S) “TOP GUN” JOHN PODESTA! Commentary By Adina Kutnicki



WHILE many still insist that Congress has essential powers, as delineated within the Constitution, you would do well to go back to sleep. Congress is largely irrelevant. Barely a rubber stamp.

And those of us who studied Constitutional Law – not the “living breathing” (socialist) interpretation – understood the signs for what they were:

ARTICLE I
SECTION 1.

All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
Its placement, as the First Article, was not for nothing. Spinning in their graves.

Though Congress’s erosion, its insidious undermining, has taken place for years with winks and nods (active assistance too) from many Congressional players on both sides of the aisle, its devastation has been ratcheted up (to an exponential degree) under the Dictator-in-Chief. To wit, the castration of Congress via a total power grab from the Executive branch has come to fruition. Full circle. Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s State of the Union address (January 28, 2014) spelled it ALL out. NO room for equivocation.

Cocky…doesn’t even barely describe “The One’s” brash and brass tacks. Nunchucks. 

As is said, no man is an island. Many “helping hands” are required –  along the path – to effectuate fateful and fatal outcomes. Some are more central than others, in fact, so much so that they should be coined “string pullers”. But let us not disregard back up players, they are more than necessary. Call them second string.
But what does the above have to do with the Dictator-in-Chief? Everything. Yet, since little happens in a vacuum, therefore, it pays to do a bit of back tracking. How did we get from there to here under the (thuggish) reign of Barack HUSSEIN Obama? 
Back Track Number One: 
January 19, 2014 it was “predicted”: AMERICA (TO BE) RULED BY FIAT: AS DECREED BY ITS DICTATOR-IN-CHIEF! 2014, THE YEAR OF ITS INAUGURAL
Back Track Number Two:
Though Number One was the most recent warning, back in the day, October 2012, this too was foreseen:What Are The Chances Of Reining In A Lawbreaker-in-Chief, Who Abets Illegal Aliens Then Punishes Those Who Expose Said Lawbreaking? 
Back Track Number Three:
Yes, in Aug. 2012, this too was highlighted: The Fruits Of Washington’s Dictator-in-Chief…Via Short Video Clip!
Back Track Number Four:
But wouldn’t you know, a fellow Communist in Congress – and there exists quite a big crew – had verbal diarrhea and spilled the beans, one which spelled out how the Dictator-in-Chief will transform “Amerika”: Demster Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee’s Loose Lips, Her “Slip Of The Tongue”. Martial Law.
Back Track Number Five:
How many Americans, patriots no less, realize that OPEN communists are deep within Congress? U.S. CONGRESSIONAL COMMUNISTS & The Ties That Bind:The RED Portion Of The RED/GREEN Alliance. Mind blowing. A “captured” operation.
MOST ominously, stationed in the People’s House is Clinton’s “fixer”.
Podesta’s presence raises the stakes for liberty’s (eventual) demise. Yes, a comrade of BOTH Clinton’s. He is running Obama’s show, but on behalf of the devil incarnate – Georgie boy Soros! Listen to the “puppet master” speak: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xcmci9_george-soros-calls-for-a-new-world_news
But have no worries, Val (Obama’s “brain”), is still a very powerful player, though reportedly playing “second fiddle” to the latest hatchet man; communist loving, Podesta –  Soros Moves To Salvage White House Investment – Brings On ‘Project Podesta”
Podesta”, a formula that seeks to greatly enhance the power of the president via executive orders.

Obama promises a dramatic ‘year of action’ — with or without help of Congress

Insists U.S. must ‘reverse the tides’ of inequality

  • Provoking Republican lawmakers with an in-your-face vow to bypass Congress if necessary, President Obama said Tuesday night that he would use his executive authority on a dozen issues including income inequality and job training to spur “a year of action” for his stalled agenda.
“America does not stand still — and neither will I,” Mr. Obama said in the annual State of the Union address. “So wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families, that’s what I’m going to do.”

SEE ALSO: Truth Watch: Obama a bit too rosy with his State of the Union math

In the Republican response, Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington state said the GOP has a more hopeful vision for the nation that empowers people rather than the government.
The president embarked on his go-it-alone strategy even before he started his speech, with the White House announcing a dozen executive actions that the president already has taken or will take in the coming weeks, including a move to create a class of “starter” retirement savings accounts available through employers.
Another of his actions will raise the minimum wage for federal contractors from $7.25 per hour to $10.10. The Labor Department said about 16,000 federal employees in 2012 received the federal minimum wage.
That move was intended to pressure lawmakers to pass a broader increase in the minimum wage for some 21 million workers.
“Give America a raise,” Mr. Obama challenged lawmakers.
The president’s push for executive actions immediately raised the ire of Republicans. Speaker John A. Boehner, who opposes a minimum wage increase on the grounds that it would slow economic growth, criticized the executive action.


SEE ALSO: Text of President Obama’s State of the Union address


“We’re just not going to sit here and let the president trample all over us,” said Mr. Boehner, Ohio Republican. “I have to remind him we do have a Constitution.
And the Congress writes the laws, and the president’s job is to execute the laws faithfully. And if he tries to ignore this he’s going to run into a brick wall.”
Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, accused Mr. Obama of “acting like a child.”
The president delivered his address coming off his worst year in office, in which his agenda was sidetracked by scandals and the error-filled launch of Obamacare. With lawmakers preparing for pivotal midterm elections that could further complicate the president’s agenda, Mr. Obama called for progress on unfinished business such as immigration reform.
“In the coming months, let’s see where else we can make progress together,” Mr. Obama said. “That’s what most Americans want — for all of us in this chamber to focus on their lives, their hopes, their aspirations.”
Mr. Obama defended his beleaguered Obamacare health care law but didn’t mention the program’s troubled start in October or the continuing concerns about it. He warned the GOP not to attempt any more futile measures to repeal the law.
“The first 40 [bills] were plenty,” he said.
The president said he wants to use all the tools at his disposal to narrow the growing gap between rich and poor in America.
“After four years of economic growth, corporate profits and stock prices have rarely been higher, and those at the top have never done better,” Mr. Obama said. “But average wages have barely budged. Inequality has deepened. Upward mobility has stalled. Our job is to reverse these tides.”
Citing the lowest unemployment rate since he took office and a rebounding housing market, Mr. Obama said this year “can be a breakthrough year for America.”
Sour public mood
Mr. Obama’s rosy forecast for the economy is in contrast with the mood of the public about the state of the recovery. An NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Tuesday found that 68 percent of Americans believe they are not better off than when Mr. Obama became president.
In the survey, 39 percent said the country is in worse shape since Mr. Obama took office, and 63 percent said the country is on the wrong track.
The president’s move to raise the minimum wage for federal contractors, from $7.25 to $10.10 per hour, was more of a political statement than an effort to jump-start the economy. Because the order applies only to future contracts, it would affect only a small portion of the estimated 2 million workers who fall under the definition of federal contractors, as opposed to the 21 million workers nationwide who would benefit from a full increase in the hourly wage.
House Speaker John A. Boehner, who opposes a minimum wage increase on the grounds that it would slow economic growth, criticized the executive action Tuesday.
“We’re just not going to sit here and let the president trample all over us,” said Mr. Boehner, Ohio Republican. “I have to remind him we do have a Constitution. And the Congress writes the laws, and the president’s job is to execute the laws faithfully. And if he tries to ignore this, he’s going to run into a brick wall.”
Use of executive initiatives is the latest White House effort to move ahead on Mr. Obama’s agenda without congressional action. The president has used his executive power for action on climate change and on immigration, preventing the deportations under certain conditions of young people who were brought to the U.S. illegally.
Flexing executive power is nothing new, and Mr. Obama hasn’t used his presidential pen as often as his predecessors. Republican Presidents Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush signed 213 and 173 orders, respectively, in their first terms, compared with 147 for Mr. Obama. Democrat Bill Clinton issued 200 executive orders in his first term.
New White House counsel John Podesta, an advocate of executive authority, said Mr. Obama has “warmed up” to the idea.
“And I think you’ll see that across a wide range of topics, including retirement security, moving forward on his climate change and energy transformation agenda,” Mr. Podesta told NPR.
Frustrated by Republicans’ resistance to his agenda, Mr. Obama also has taken unilateral steps to try to improve the nation’s employment situation, including securing a pledge by a group of major corporations not to discriminate against the long-term unemployed in hiring decisions.
Mr. Obama convened CEOs from across the country this month in an effort to persuade them to take “a second look” at hiring the long-term unemployed, who have emerged as a particular sore spot in the sluggish job market.
Several companies signed a pledge with the White House, including Bank of America, Xerox, AT&T and Lockheed Martin, stating that they are “committed to inclusive hiring practices.”
“After four years of economic growth, corporate profits and stock prices have rarely been higher, and those at the top have never done better,” Mr. Obama said. “But average wages have barely budged. Inequality has deepened. Upward mobility has stalled. Our job is to reverse these tides.”
Citing the lowest unemployment rate since he took office and a rebounding housing market, Mr. Obama said this year “can be a breakthrough year for America.”
At the end of it all, sach ha’kol, American patriots can either act now to save the Republic,or let the Dictator-in-Chief bring down America, as the greatest experiment in human liberty fails. Falls.

The Black Hole in The White House


Like scum floating on a polluted swamp, like turds in a cesspool, all power rises to the top. As if being drawn into some looming singularity, otherwise known as a Black Hole, politics in Washington produces the largest accumulation of this odorous substance anywhere. And the leadership of the Democratic Party and their RINO accomplices may well have the exclusive rights. As the venerable Lord Acton once said, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely" Barack Hussein Obama seems to have been born for no other reason than to offer living proof for this logic as if it were an immutable law of physics. So begins a new era of the American Imperial Presidency and our Nation's Founders are turning over in their graves. Obama's communist upbringing and his anti-Christian education has skilled him in reducing our once great nation into a third-world banana republic. And every third-world banana republic needs a dictator to run it.

The new seat of power.
Obama has said that he doesn't need Congress to write his laws, he has his own pen and he plans to use it to issue his Executive Orders. Pray tell, how else does one define a dictatorship any other way? It is hard to pick the worst of what he has already accomplished but one thing is sure and that is what he has done to America was not by accident or failure. It was by design. So how do others view this abomination in our Constitutional Republic? Take a look.

The new symbol of power in Washington is now depicted wearing a crown. And the new seat of power is a throne. For the previous 7 years our leftist news media depicted him with a halo as if he was some messianic reincarnation. Now he has elevated himself to royalty to rule a country without the consent of a legislature. Obama himself, once described his arrival on the political scene as "The One who would cause the rise of the oceans to slow". It isn't known if he was still smoking pot from his college days when he said it but no one ever questioned him about it. That's what happens when you have a state-run news media and a corps of journalists who forgot their ethical standards. No one ever says the Emperor has no clothes.

We still have one more chance to right the wrong in November. If we blow it again we're screwed.

The Three Stages of US Martial Law

Dave Hodges
The Common Sense Show

martial law obama 
America has gone from being annoyed with their government to the point of resisting their government. In my previous article, I have detailed how state governors, veterans, truckers and just average everyday citizens are resisting the tyrannical and egregious abrogation’s of the United States Constitution. The police state crackdown mechanisms are in place which are designed to break the back of any resistance to federal authority, legitimate or not.

The net effect of the establishment of “Police State America” is that it is designed to subjugate the populace and stamp out any remaining vestiges of Constitutional liberties and create a society where the state is all-powerful. With America’s new found spirit of civil liberty being expressed through acts of civil disobedience, martial law is being put into place. When one couples this undeniable fact with the fact that President Obama is under extreme pressure and is struggling to maintain control of the country, these measures are going to be rolled out in a style reminiscent of the Shock and Awe style witnessed in Gulf War I.

Obama Is a Wounded Animal

Obama was clearly given a mandate by the central bankers to get the US into a war in the Middle East, first with Syria and Iran. This conflict was designed to temporarily preserve the Petrodollar which Iran is threatening by selling oil for gold to China, Russia and India. The powers that be were hoping that Russia and China would resist and any final resistance to a complete central banking takeover of the planet would be eliminated. Obama’s initiatives, designed to provoke a war with Syria, as a first step, were turned back. Obama has been publicly humiliated by Russian leader, Vladimir Putin. The world and specifically, the alternative media, thwarted Obama and the central bankers on this front.

Obama’s Motivation for Martial Law Implementation

Richard Nixon was unable to survive one direct hit upon his administration, namely, the Watergate scandal. Conversely, Obama is facing five scandals which dwarfs Watergate in terms of criminality, abuse of power, malfeasance of office and outright treason. The damage inflicted upon the American people by the criminal syndicate occupying the White House, in American History, is unparalleled.  

Last May the central bankers, through their corporate controlled press, released five Watergate type scandals in a brief 10 day period designed to force a reluctant President’s hand in the Middle East. America is outraged by (1) Benghazi-Gate; (2) IRS-Gate; (3) AP Spy-Gate; (4) Whistle-blower-Gate; and even (5) Fast and Furious made a second pass. The alternative media is being so effective that it is forcing the MSM to jump off Obama’s ship and claim they do not support him any longer (e.g. MSNBC Chris Mathews). These five events are real threats to this President remaining in office. Unable to get a war started in the Middle East, how can the President survive these five crises? He has no choice but to move from the soft forms of martial law to an all-out implementation of martial law if he wants to remain in power.

The Three Stages of Martial Law Roll-Out

Under martial law, Obama can effectively eliminate all opposition to his administration. Under martial law, Obama can eliminate all media opposition to his presidency. Additionally, under martial law, Obama can remain in power, perhaps indefinitely. The pattern for the implementation of martial law follows three very distinct stages. 

dhs tsa vipr sporting eventsStage one of martial law consists of the gradual roll-out of government controls over citizen liberties. Travel is restricted through inland border checkpoints. The internal DHS VIPR programs which randomly search citizens at public events and on the highways  are now in place. Citizens are conditioned by the TSA that they do not control or own their bodies as the flying public is molested by the TSA everyday in our nation’s airports in an extreme violation of our citizens Fourth Amendment rights. Stage one also begins to create an enemies list and we have already seen this in the MIAC report in which Christians, Ron Paul supporters, Second Amendment supporters, Libertarians and Constitutionalists have been branded as domestic terrorists. The enemies list has been created and will be acted upon at a future date. In Stage one, the government elevates itself above any pretense of constitutional liberties. America has been firmly under Stage one martial law governance since the events of 9/11. 
In Stage two, martial law implementation becomes obvious to all citizens except for the ones who invoke cognitive dissonance as a psychological coping mechanism. Stage two is marked by restrictions on travel, the loss of free speech and the right to assemble to air grievances against the government.

In Stage two, the free internet as we know it, will disappear. Subsequently, the truthful, alternative media will disappear as well. Stage two is also characterized by the total loss of due process of law with regard to detainment, imprisonment or worse. This stage is also marked by limiting participation of members of the society who have been previously identified as enemies of the state (i.e. MIAC Report). This would include the ability to hold certain kinds of employment, a special designation on a form of national ID, the imposition of restrictions on who can marry, where one can live, etc.

This ID led to 90 days of genocide resulting in one million executions.

When the national ID card is implemented, it is time to run for the hills because history shows that nobody will be safe.

The Loss of Private Property

Stage two also witnesses the total loss of private property and free will in terms of choice of domicile (i.e. Agenda 21), choice of employment and exercising any form of political choice. In short, Stage two is characterized by creating a political caste system in which the legal rights of certain groups are set in place (i.e. NDAA, Executive Order 13603, etc). The MERS mortgage fraud inspired thievery of legitimate home titles and the MF Global theft of privately secured investment accounts are cases in point. Stage two is often preceded by a false flag attack (e.g. burning of the Reichstag) designed to create a perceived enemy which serves as the excuse for the encroachment of  “necessary” tyranny in a society in which “we must trade our liberty for security” approach to governance. 

Stage three martial law has given history some of its darkest days. Warrantless detentions become common place in which suspected political dissidents are removed from society, usually in the middle of the night. In modern terminology, these would be referred to as the “Red list” tagged citizens who are detained and normally executed. These include outspoken preachers, outspoken talk show hosts, people who have any kind of history of civil disobedience.

The remainder of this article will exclusively focus on the establishment of Stage two martial law.   

Police State Measures

From unconstitutional border checkpoints which are  dozens of miles inland, America has been under a soft form of martial law for some time. The TSA conducts illegal and unconstitutional sexual assault, everyday, upon the flying public. The TSA has expanded their illegal detention and search operations through Operation VIPR on highways, malls and even a high school prom in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The NSA spies on your every electronic communication and has created a threat matrix database on every American. Why? What have Americans done that is so bad that our federal agencies have to invade rodeos, NASCAR events and the I-40 highway in Tennessee to pull over Americans without probable cause and molest their bodies in the name of national security? These unwarranted actions are the preliminary event to the roll out of Stage two martial law.

Creating the “Reichstag Fire” Justification

When the lights go out
When the lights go out
I do not look for one false flag event designed to move the country into martial law, it is likely that several false flag events will take place, in different regions of the country. The pattern is almost always the same in which the authorities conduct a drill related to terrorism. The drill is used to mask a false flag attack arising from the drill. This happened on 9/11, the 7/7 bombings and most recently, at the Boston Marathon. These drills combined with resulting false flag events will give the administration the ability to incrementally implement martial law in a fashion similar to what happened in with the implementation of  illegal martial law in Boston following the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15th. The roll out of Boston’s martial law was clearly a beta test for what is coming all across the country. And who could ever forget the images of the federal subjugation of an American city in which we saw troops in the street, curfews imposed and free travel eliminated.


martial law dress rehearsalRecently, DHS sponsored a self-study entitled, “Homeland Security and Intelligence: Next Steps in Evolving the Mission“, in which DHS proclaims that they are no longer concerned with foreign inspired terrorism. They are only going to focus on domestic terrorism, ostensibly, against the American people. Does the DHS purchase of 2.2 billion rounds of ammo, the acquisition of 2700 armored personnel carriers and the beta test of martial law in Boston last April begins to make a great deal of sense. Total control over the country, through a false flag event scenario seems entirely likely given the pre-positioning of assets by DHS. 

The real purpose behind the creation of this American version of the East German Stasi secret police was to monitor and control the American population. Unfortunately, DHS has shared its high tech toys with most local police departments and Sheriff’s Departments and has, as a result, co-opted their local function. In other words, the federalization of local police forces, in violation of the 10th Amendment, is well underway. The early returns on this process are in and the results are extremely ugly, and through the federalization of local police departments, DHS is acquiring the manpower to enforce its soon-to-be martial law edicts.

The Importance of PDD 51 Cannot Be Overstated

Further support comes from Presidential Decision Directive 51 which handed President Obama dictator status in times of declared, and not necessarily real, national emergency. PDD 51 is a Bush era executive order that gives the President dictatorial power in times of national emergency, eliminates any roadblock to declaring martial law in the United States. It gives Obama the power to suspend elections. Under this arrangement, Obama could have 50 Watergate type of scandals hanging over his head and he does not have to worry about leaving office.

Stage Two and the Abrogation of Civil Liberties

Can there be any doubt?

When the first false flag event occurs, America will witness the implementation of Obama’s Executive Order 13603. In Section 601 of Executive Order 13603 signals the most Orwellian aspect of this executive order in which “upon request by the Director of Selective Service, and in coordination with the Secretary of Defense, assist the Director of Selective Service in development of policies regulating the induction and deferment of persons for duty in the armed services” (paragraph 2). What is particularly troubling is that the Secretary of Labor will possess oversight over the Selective Service process, instead of the Secretary of Defense. This revelation left me scratching my head as I wondered why would the Department of Labor be in charge of the coming military draft? Then it dawned upon me that we were not just talking about military conscription. I refer to the 2008 Presidential campaign in which Obama stated that “we need to construct a national civilian security force that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded (as the military).

Obama is clearly planning to conscript civilians, train them and send them where they are needed and will pay them whatever wage the Secretary of Commerce determines (Section 601; paragraphs 3, 4-Section 801; paragraph C). In one fell swoop, Obama has sidestepped the 13th Amendment as we are talking about the introduction of forced labor (i.e. indentured servitude).

Under Executive Order 13603, the Secretary of Transportation has been given control over civil transportation which “includes movement of persons and property by all modes of transportation in interstate, intrastate, or foreign commerce within the United States, its territories and possessions, and the District of Columbia, and related public storage and warehousing, ports, services, equipment and facilities, such as transportation carrier shop and repair facilities.” “Civil transportation” also shall include direction, control, and coordination of civil transportation capacity regardless of ownership” (Section 801 part A). Can there be any doubt that the expanded surveillance program of the TSA, in their unconstitutional practices of hands down our pants VIPER program, is designed to control all travel in the United States? The former Soviet Union used to have checkpoints every 20 miles in order to restrict travel and to prevent the congregation of “revolutionary forces” for purposes of opposing government control as well as to limit the ability of political dissidents to flee from their governmental pursuers. I feel compelled to ask, what is the government going to do that is so nefarious and so intrusive that they are seeking to set up a control grid which will accomplish these same goals? The present day Border Patrol checkpoints are part of a conditioning process designed to get Americans used to the fact that they have no constitutional liberties (e.g. Fourth Amendment).

Under EO 13603, the Secretary of Energy will have control over all “Energy” (which) means all forms of energy including petroleum, gas (both natural and manufactured), electricity, solid fuels (including all forms of coal, coke, coal chemicals, coal liquification, and coal gasification), solar, wind, other types of renewable energy, atomic energy, and the production, conservation, use, control, and distribution (including pipelines) of all of these forms of energy…” This means the government will have total control over all utility prices, the installation of smart meters along with the implementation of the smart grid and the amount of energy which can be consumed by average Americans will be severely curtailed under this new system of energy feudalism which will be imposed on the new American serfs. Obama, in the 2008 Presidential Campaign, stated that “under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” Previously ignorant Americans will soon come to know the true meaning and the prophetic meaning of these words (Section 801, part b).
Starving Americans Into Submission
Stalin did it, Hitler did it and now Obama has the ability to do it. In Stage two martial law, if you want to eat, you must obey.

The Secretary of Agriculture will possess control over “fertilizer” (which) means any product or combination of products that contain one or more of the elements nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium for use as a plant nutrient.” The Secretary of Agriculture will also control “food resource facilities “(which) means plants, machinery, vehicles (including on farm), and other facilities required for the production, processing, distribution, and storage (including cold storage) of food resources, and for the domestic distribution of farm equipment and fertilizer.” This is the total control of all food. This will allow Monsanto which demonstrably controls the Department of Agriculture, the FDA and EPA to move forward, unabated, for the total GMO takeover of our food supply. Even more disturbing is that a few men will have total control over all food production and the dissenting masses who oppose this fascist takeover can be effectively starved into submission or starved to death (Section 801, parts c-f).
There can be no doubt as the Secretary of Defense will be placed in charge of all water resources Section 801, part n). I can draw no other conclusion that placing the control of water under the DOD represents the weaponizing of water and the intended target of this full frontal assault are the American people for the purpose of imposing population control and complete compliance. I hearken back to the movie, The Hunger Games, this is exactly what lies in our future with regard to a martial law roll out which reaches Stage two.
What Will It Be Like to Live Under Martial Law?

In summary, Stage two martial law will follow a false flag event in which the internet will be taken down. All bank accounts, pension funds and 401K’s will be frozen and stolen. Extreme travel restrictions will be put in place. Random house to house searches will be conducted (Don’t forget about the 386,000 foreign troops which just completed their training on American soil). What will they be looking for? Of course, they will be looking for guns and the false flag events will give them the pretext to do so. And they will also be looking for known trouble makers. We will all be living in a society where we can be singled out for persecution, or worse. We will all have to watch every word we say. As it was in the Soviet Union, your young children will be used to spy upon and tattle on you at their school. And of course, you will be totally dependent upon the government for food, water and shelter. Traveling will be so onerous, that you will be content just to huddle in your home. When the false flag events commence, we will look at these days as the good ‘ole days.
